- The European Union Bill—authorising Article 50 notice—passed its first hurdle on February 1, 2017.
- MPs in the House of Commons voted by 498 to 114 in favour of the Bill.
- The Bill now moves to the Committee phase: hundreds of amendments have been tabled by MPs, some of which will be debated in Parliament between Monday and Wednesday next week.
- MPs will then vote again on the amended draft law before it is sent to the House of Lords.
